Beach House – "Zebra" (2010)
2010/12/31
I've learned a lot this year… or rather taken things to heart that others have been telling me for years. "Don't sweat the small stuff." (Richard Carlson) "Very often we are our own worst enemy." (Louis Binstock) "If you're not having fun, you're doing something wrong." (Groucho Marx) … stuff like that.
I've also found that going with your gut instinct and impulses is being truer to yourself, and it saves a lot of time fretting and worrying about, which is rarely worth it. "Do, or do not. There is no 'try.'" (Yoda in "The Empire Strikes Back")
I have also learned that I like the sounds of zebras, duplicating them with G and my sister-in-law, and this song named for the magnificent beast. Listen for yourself:
Happy New Year Everyone!

The Sundays – "Wild Horses" (1992)

This cover is so good, it was a long time before I knew it was a cover of The Rolling Stones song. This is clearly one of those instances where the cover improved upon the original. Don't you think?
